David Wade

They've known for 16 months that we oppose the concept of additional contract workers at CBC.

Arnold Amber

Our workers comp debt is the Achilles heel of our state's economy, and I firmly believe that in order to create more good jobs in West Virginia this system must be fixed and it must be fixed now. We cannot afford to wait even one more minute.

Joe Manchin Iii

Despite the payroll employment number being higher than expected, the fact that average hourly wages were so small means that there are not a lot of wage pressures, not a lot of demands to add new workers and, therefore, not a lot to worry the (Federal Reserve) in this report.

Ronald Hill

We know that the construction sector is dependent on immigrant workers in some cases. These bills would be very important both to employers who want a legal, stable work force and to the immigrants who are working in construction already.

Michele Waslin

Let's say that out of this 20,000, let's say 10,000 will decide in the end not to be Jewish -- so what? If part of them convert to Christianity, Israel is filled with guest workers. Israel is a heterogeneous society.

Carol Florman

Most workers took a 20 percent cut on wages.

David Feherty

The wireless Web technology, like all great Internet breakthroughs, is surrounded by hype. However, the reality is that the United States has a growing mobile work force that could turn the hype into solving real business issues, inasmuch as wireless creates a new paradigm that no longer restricts workers by physical boundaries or a tethered desktop PC system.

Sheryl Kingstone

Most cleaning workers receive 'Here's your keys' training. 'Here's your keys, here's your building, we'll see you in an hour or a day, or a month, and we hope you'll do well.' There's a better way to train.

Shlomo Dror

People were vomiting, throwing up on the streets, kids were crying and screaming. It was chaos. And this happens every year. But medical people don't know how to deal with it. They don't speak the language of the workers. The clinics don't know how to recognize the symptoms. They give the workers aspirins and send them back to work.

Jeff Ponting

The real difficulty will be creating 1,900 good jobs for workers with high school diplomas ? full-time jobs that pay enough to raise a family, that include health and pension benefits, and that have paid sick leave and vacations. But how to do this in a global economy is a huge challenge that every country in the world is grappling with.

John Budd

These subsidies would ... reduce the unemployment rate of low-skilled workers; put the paychecks of low-wage workers closer to the median scale; decrease the unemployed worker's feelings of exclusion, dependence and powerlessness; inculcate the habits of self-efficacy and self-sufficiency; and increase employees' incentive to better themselves.

Al Gini

We'll be far more responsive in regard to appointment windows and customer demand. We'll be using multiple wireless providers depending on where our workers are at so we'll have seamless communications.

Karen Broach

If those contributions are not made, workers and retirees will be placed at greater risk of losing promised benefits.

Kei Kamara

Nevertheless adequate design and operational safeguards have to be put in place and tested to ensure that the public, the environment and workers are fully protected in the event of an accident. Lessons learned through many years of successful operations are constantly being incorporated.

Greg Hopkins

[These CEOs] are rewarded for decisions that may help the corporate bottom line, but at the same time are very costly for U.S. workers and communities.

The rate of foraging slowed down and stopped completely, placing stress on the colony because materials the colony needs, primarily food, are not coming in. So the colony needs to recruit new workers to make up for the loss.

Sean O'donnell

The families have become the doctors, the nurses and the social workers.

Dr. John Talbott

The intention isn't to replace workers, but right now they're not working and the machines are and they will stay when the strike is over.

With benefits, those workers can make $30 an hour. Each position eliminated will result in significant savings.

Marc Magliari

All the other themes -- among them job stability, subcontracting, the length of the collective agreement, pension fund -- weren't answered in the employer's offer. The workers expressed their desire to see these issues dealt with.

Benoit Fillion

The broader point we're conveying is the immigrant community is important. What would be the impact if there were no immigrants? The state would not have enough workers. The state is already lacking in workers.

Ali Noorani

We are continuing with our attacks on oil facilities and oil workers in the next few days. We will act without further warning.

Jomo Gbomo

George Hawkins

They want us to have the same plan that they crammed down the white collar workers' throats.

Rocco J. Calo

Everything is produced by the workers, and the minute they try to get something by their unions they meet all the opposition that can be mustered by those who now get what they produce.

Harry Bridges

It's health care workers, the people that provide the care, wanting a voice with the accountants and the CEO's to determine on the staffing that's needed.

Sal Rosselli

We should face up to the situation and find solutions for workers.

Dong Li

We lost a lot of markets to the imports and if you just say, 'Hey you can't have these workers anymore,' It'll just, we'll die with that. We'll die with that.

Jack Brooks

Workers from workplace to workplace can use direct action to support one another more than using a contract.

Amy Mondloch

When you play soft and loose with the district's money when it comes to yourself, you rightly see skepticism when it comes to not having the money for the lowest-paid workers in the district.

Thomas Dewar

The shortage of qualified workers has been a serious and growing problem for several years. But it is also noteworthy that more than one in four top executives feel their own limitations may be a barrier to the success of their business in the year ahead. This is an indicator of just how complex it is to manage a growing technology business today.

Paul Weaver

Many workers with the program felt frustrated by the many failures, but Wang often encouraged us to continue. And he often worked all nightlong for days.

Kang Baoshan

The idea of a work/life balance is much more important to younger workers than it ever was with baby boomers. Companies are looking at retention issues.

Jen Jorgensen

So many things can interfere. You have to allow for weather and the availability of your workers as well as city code inspectors — who have all been very helpful and fair, by the way.

Barbara Manning

Whereas we typically see a new year's increase, our polling indicates that workers are approaching this year with a 'wait-and-see' attitude. This is not a great cause for concern, though, as worker sentiment remains essentially unchanged from December, which showed increased optimism overall.

Steve Wolfe

Reviews are an effective way to gauge an employees' productivity and discuss career growth. However, unless managers give constructive feedback, they can forget about building a dialogue with workers and run the risk of losing top talent to other companies.

Raymond Roe

Strike action is the only option left to local government workers. They want to demonstrate the burning resentment and anger they feel over the government and employers taking away their pension rights when those same rights have been given to every other public-sector pension scheme.

Dave Prentis

California is noted for having some of the toughest standards, laws, protecting farm workers' rights. But the law enforcement is very lax on it, and I think nothing is going to change until the employers are held responsible for insuring these workers are being transported in safe vehicles.

Tanis Ybarra

Security threats are on the rise and will continue to grow as workers become ever more mobile and the number of access points to each company's critical assets increases. The deployment of an NS Series appliance at Objective Productions demonstrates the increasingly integral part our technology will play in securing and protecting core Microsoft applications in today's enterprises.

Gareth Green

We just want to make our demands very clear and explicit to the administration. The [Designated Supplier Program] is an integral part of ensuring workers' rights.

Ben Brewer

When foreign investors enter Vietnam, they must follow the country's labor rules. If they don't, the Vietnamese government has the responsibility to enforce the law or expel the company. The government has to protect the worker. The unions that represent workers in factories of foreign and joint-stock companies are weak. They don't have the strength to stand up to the management.

Long Nguyen

In Florida, with its annual increases, and also with the hurricanes and booming construction and resort industries, there are plenty of jobs available. So employers have to pay more to retain good workers.

Allen Douglas

Given the sort and level of opposition from the neighbors as to the number of occupants and seasonal workers we would like to be able to house in the building, we have concluded that it might not be in our best interests to pursue this. As the proposal now stands, we would gain only 10 extra beds, and that might not be worth $7-8 million.

David Corbin

Congress is on the wrong side of history on this. There is an opportunity today to provide a safe and healthy environment to all workers at the Capitol.

Paul Billings

They will no longer be able to rely on a rapidly growing group of younger workers in the future. Increased employment of older workers seems like a natural solution, but employers will have to change their hiring and retention policies if they want to attract these highly productive older individuals.

Alicia Munnell

We wanted to come here and make a statement. The kids are hard workers. I think we have a chance to place anywhere in the top five at state.

Robin Ruh

The entire campus is involved with the planning and preparations for this event, not just us; it goes from the office and staff in recruiting and admissions, all the way to the ground workers.

Lisa Miller

It's worth exploring if it offers any potential at all to protect emergency responders or industrial workers. Without doing things like this, you'll never know where it could go.

Jack Williamson

I will miss my co-workers, customers and the job itself. I have been a cashier and worked a lot in the crafts area.

Beverly Clark

We're interested in supporting workers who are the backbone of the industry.

Jonathan Tisch

In the long run, I can't exclude cuts. But we have a high degree of flexibility and employ temporary workers to adjust to changes in demand.

Andreas Renschler

Me and my co-workers will do what we have to do until they don't need us anymore. I hope they can privatize Lone Star.

Lone Star

All of Upper Arlington's guys have good hands and a bunch of skill. We may not be as talented as they are, but we're all hard workers, so we'll need to get a body on them when they have the puck.

Michael Strine

If you ripped open her chest you'd see an awfully big heart. She's got an amazing engine and is one of the hardest workers already.

Steve Swanson

This is a natural extension of location services we've seen serving the business market to track workers and employees. Sprint has built a bridge to the consumer world and to families. Sprint has done a good job ensuring that privacy concerns are kept to a minimum.... Kids can always turn the phone off if they don't want to be tracked.

Marina Amoroso

Staggering increases in the price of gas are having serious ripple effects throughout the economy and forcing employees to dip into their own packets to cover the costs of fuel. This is an untenable situation for these workers.

Colleen Kelley

They often inspire great loyalty as well. If the employee is strapped, the company as a family is there for them; and alternately, if the company is in trouble, the workers are willing to go the extra mile to help the company and the family.

Danny Miller

The (United Auto Workers) suggests that everyone needs to share the pain, including shareholders.

Brett Hoselton

With some of the refineries now shut down in the Houston area and their workers evacuated, we are pulling from operations east of the area.

Steve Baker

We do think you're going to see a drop off in consumer spending in coming months. Part of the reason is workers are experiencing pain in their take-home pay. You're still seeing other areas of the economy kicking in. These will offset some of the negatives from lower consumer spending.

John Shin

Our biggest fear is that the other issue -- the undocumented workers -- bogs down and threatens the entire bill.

Ralph Hellman

This campaign should end the myth that high-tech workers in the new economy do not want to seek representation on the job and that unions are irrelevant in the 21 st century.

Marcus Courtney

One of his co-workers was also in there, and he is in the hospital at this time. We are also dealing with an injured firefighter, again due to trees.

Peter Kelly

If workers are going to use the services, it's going to cost them more money.

Paul Fronstin

Over the next decade, the aging workforce will transform the way that both employers and employees think about work and retirement. With increases in longevity, many workers recognize that they may need to stay in the workforce longer to fund their retirement, which could last 30 years or more.

Maria R. Morris

The reality is that, at least from my experience, these people coming into the trades are very hard workers and become skilled craftsmen and are doing a great job.

Mike Hickman

It is inconceivable that French workers at Peugeot would be laid off on this magnitude.

Derek Simpson

This movie is a tribute to the scores of health care workers who stood fast and weathered one of the most compelling events in recent Canadian medical history. These men and woman are heroes for sacrificing so much in the face of a potential medical catastrophe.

Susanne Boyce

You hear about troubled adolescents. That was not the young men and women I saw. They were incredible workers, they had vision, they were dedicated and determined and committed to the project.

Rusty Fumi

We are very concerned about these shortages and are seeking input from today's nurses to help us more effectively train and attract new workers to the health care field.

Roberta Gassman

Currently, Taiwan has an intake of 320,000 foreign workers from Southeast Asian countries. The Pacific island countries are relatively small and have very low populations. If we introduce, say, 500 workers from each of these countries, I think this number can easily be absorbed by Taiwan's market and in the mean time, it will significantly benefit our small Pacific allies.

Donald Lee

It's no secret that the Building Trades workers in the state of Minnesota look at the bonding bill as a real source of their livelihood and in that vein, it's never big enough. But in reality, this one could and should be bigger.

Dick Anfang

It's not right. They want to work. They're not doing nothing wrong. They want for (the children) to go to school and be somebody better ? not workers like them.

Juan Santiago

If the program doesn't make any sense and the expectation to the workers and the employers are so out of sync with reality, that's a failed program.

Benjamin Johnson

The fallout from these mergers is often measured in jobs as the combined entity cuts overlapping positions and sheds workers in an effort to maintain profit margins.

John Challenger

The census is very accurate. If someone doesn't answer the door on the first visit, our workers will go back as many as six times on a different date and time. We'll leave them a note just letting them know who we are and why we're in the area. We also tell them that we'll be coming back. We leave them our name and number so they can call to verify.

Sue Bolfik

Mobile workers are increasingly looking for ways to stay connected on the move. The powerful combination of our recently announced P990 and M600 phones together with the Exchange ActiveSync protocol, allows customers to easily manage their Exchange e-mail, calendar and contacts on the move.

Brendan Press

I do not knowingly employ undocumented workers. That's absolutely not my style.

David Penry

I wish (the federal government) would decide to do something about it. There's a lot of people already here. If they are good people and good workers and are doing nothing bad and following U.S. rules I don't see why not.

Maria Enriquez

I need people to sort and pack ? and we need help filling out customs forms. I had one volunteer, June Fox, come in last week and she wrapped 11 packages in under 25 minutes. That's the type of workers we need.

Sharon Rainey

These businesses puff up their profits by not offering benefits, ... And at lunch, they give their workers an extra half hour to register on a public health insurance program.

Christine Quinn

The attacks in Nigeria on a pipeline, and the kidnapping of oil workers is nothing new for that region.

Kevin Kerr

I'm looking for men and women who were in uniform during World War II, regardless of the nation they represented. I'm also looking for noncombatants such as defense workers, especially the 'Rosie the Riveter' types who would like to share their stories with our 11th-grade students as they learn more about World War II.

Pete Lafrance

It was a better deal than last time, maybe the best deal the workers shall get.

Dave Minshall

We are seeing a decline and it's real and not due to study biases. Husbands' use of sex workers has changed — it's less often and with condoms. That's the only plausible explanation.

Prabhat Jha

Our labor force is rather small right now, so you need to take care of the workers you do have. It's also up to the employee to utilize the training that's made available to them and practice good safety habits.

Cindy Pomeroy

It's a win-win situation. The workers don't only come for adventure. Many have trouble getting jobs back home.

Sreeram Iyer

The one-time cost reduction employers experience as their workers move into less expensive plans has been masking the underlying cost trend. Migration out of indemnity plans slowed to a trickle last year, so we're finally seeing real trend reflected in the national cost figures.

Blaine Bos

City taxpayers and downtown office workers are incensed when told of free parking for Manpower executives. The city leaders who thought this TIF up are out-of-touch with their constituents.

Craig Peterson

She'll review it but with workers comp rates the seventh-lowest in the country, it sure doesn't seem like it's something we need here.

Nicole Corcoran

That's what we teach all freshmen -- that investors and workers and everyone else in an economy respond in an important way to incentives, including tax incentives.

Gary Becker

Our unions do a large amount of organizing in parts of the economy that historically and recently are places where people of color and immigrant workers have found jobs. Some of them are entry-level jobs. Throughout history immigrants have found work as janitors, and our unions have helped them raise families, send their kids to college, and that's been the American dream.

Andy Stern

They don't want a fight. They cannot afford a fight. And so money becomes a way to get workers to peacefully leave.

Bob Bruno

Those guys are hard workers, man, and it shows up on Sundays. Their tapes are getting sent around the league right now, and everybody is going to see what happened this game and what this offensive line is made of.

Chris Hovan

The proliferation of part-time jobs and higher unemployment undermine the power of workers to bargain for higher wages and demand for security of tenure. Contractual workers are not allowed to join the union. So, Mrs. Arroyo?s appeal to employers to reach a middle ground with workers in granting a wage hike is a hoax.

Josua Mata

The changes proposed will bring a fair deal to vulnerable workers, and give effect to Parliament's original policy intent when it first addressed this issue in 2004.

Ross Wilson

They need to ... figure out why workers don't think they're necessary.

Randel Johnson

It provides incentives for mining companies to expand their operations, develop new mines and hire more workers.

George Leaming

As a businessman, if we are to stay in business around the world, we have to seek to make products as inexpensively as possible. What that means is that American workers will shift from doing jobs that other people can do more cheaply to jobs that other countries can't do more cheaply.

Robert Shillman

We have a lot of people who work very hard and contribute to the tax system for many years but they live in an underground society, always being exploited. Our economy thrives on these workers.

Iliana Holguin

The government considers transportation workers a high priority.

Jennifer Morcone

It complicates circumstances for foreign missionaries and Christian aid workers overseas who are already perceived, wrongly, especially by leftists and other leaders, as collaborators with U.S. intelligence agencies.

Richard Cizik

Unemployment in Crittenden County is relatively low, butthink that's because many workers have taken lower-skilled jobsthan they are qualified to perform.

Lee Conrad

W e still need poll workers and anyone who is mentally and physically capable of doing this job please call voter registration and offer your services .

Pat Mansard

It's not the border that's broken but the U.S. labor market. There is a widening economic gap between immigrants and U.S.-born workers which reflects the broader deterioration in wage and working conditions for less-skilled and low-wage workers.

We're responsible for eradicating discrimination but also for educating the public. Businesses not only need to make a profit, but they need to deal with regulations from the Labor Department, workers' compensation and a wide array of state laws.

[The GMB has welcomed news of tomorrow's increase in the minimum wage to more than £5 an hour for adult workers. The increase comes after the government accepted the recommendations of a report from the low pay commission. Further increases could take place after another report by the commission next year. ] We welcome the increase in the national minimum wage to £5.05 an hour.

Customers won't notice anything different, there's just a new unit attached to the meter. We want the process to be as seamless as possible with the least impact of the customer. Once installed, the customers will also experience less estimated bills when our workers can't get in.

Matt Nozzolio

We've shut everything down. We evacuated all our workers from the offshore platforms in the Gulf, shutting in production. We have shut down operations at our Texas City refinery.

Reform is critical if we are to encourage businesses to offer a pension benefit now, while many workers still have time to build for their retirement. Without reform, more workers will be forced to rely on Social Security, which is already facing financial difficulty.

About 800 malaria surveillance workers need to be recruited and we had planned to fill up the vacancies in March but could not do so.

Bhumidhar Barman

The 1956 act has been amended twice earlier keeping the interest of sex workers in mind. But this time, the proposed amendment will make life hell for sex workers and their dependents.

Asha Banerjee

I try to get through each day just by remembering that what we're doing is a minor sacrifice compared to what workers are going through. We're just doing a little to help them a lot.

Virginia Cutshall

It was catastrophic. We let a lot of good workers go and replaced them with people who didn't care.

Rosa Parks served as an inspiration to generations of African-Americans and all people of good will. More than an icon, Mrs. Parks is symbolic of the thousands of courageous NAACP workers who fight for civil rights in their communities.

The immediate benefit is as construction starts, that will bring a tremendous number of construction workers to town, which will help local industries. It has created a need for housing, and with that, has brought numerous developers from out of the area looking to buy land and fulfill the need for housing.

Curt Morris

He's one of the hardest workers I've seen. He's in great shape and he's always trying to make himself better.

Jack Korpar

Atlanta is an extremely hot metropolitan area because job growth is good. The Washington, D.C., area is a very bad market because we have been cutting government workers.

John Tuccillo

It totally gets us out of the box. We're sitting in our cubes trying to do work, working on computers, pumping out proposals and now we're sitting in a bumper car approaching our co-workers at 12 miles an hour ramming them and hoping the ball falls out of their little stick. It's totally different but it's a really good time.

Paul Donato

It's difficult. We need to boost the competitiveness of Hong Kong workers. That could be done by education but that's a medium-term solution.

Tai Hui

We'll strive to ensure all villages will have monitoring and reporting workers.

Jia Youling

With such a critical driver shortage facing the industry, now, more than ever, trucking is consistently looking toward recruiting and retaining a pool of experienced workers.
